Valuation and Strategy Services (V&S)

With increased globalization and need for consolidation and reorganization of businesses, enterprises are facing challenging issues in the areas of valuations, acquisitions and divestures of businesses, strategy (both evaluation and development), investor communication and investment allocation arise more frequently.

Also, post-acquistion for Fair Value Reporting, organisations are exposed to risks and problems which range from Purchase Price Allocation and Asset Impairment, to errors and differences in understanding. The challenges may be local or global and they may involve diverse business cultures and legal systems, as well as unfamiliar regulatory and accounting requirements. Additionally, there is a need for comprehensive financial, economic, and strategic advice to deal with complex business problems and disputes.

    • You need independent valuations for a number of different purposes, like acquisition, disposal, merger, partner buy-out, real-options, intangibles, regulatory approvals, purchase- price allocation, dispute resolution, etc.
    • You are contemplating a transaction, entailing acquisition/disposal of a business
    • You need to evaluate existing strategic options and develop new value-creating strategies to help achieve expected targets, e.g. evaluate the introduction of new brands, product areas or expansion into new markets or regions, value creation through innovative marketing and product development
    • You need to improve investment decisions by evaluating and appraising technical, operational, market and financial risks for shareholder value initiatives, value benchmarking and strategic business planning
    • You need to communicate investment decisions to analysts and investors
